Peppermint Hot Chocolate {Paleo}

  It’s snowing! … yup, in California 🙂   It’s Saturday, so I will be home studying & getting chores done all day. And as long as I don’t have to be out in it (or shoveling it or something), I love the snow.    With all of this wintery weather and Christmas right around the corner, I can feel a major shift in the air…. Pumpkin Spice season is over,…

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bites {Paleo}

Everyone loves homemade chocolate chip cookies… but sometimes the best part is eating the dough, right? These chocolate chip cookie dough bites are perfect, since they’re made to be eaten straight from the bowl. Cookie dough free of eggs & with good-for-you ingredients~ what could be better!? I was inspired to create this recipe after I had seen several on Pinterest for “no-bake cookie dough”, but made mine to meet…

Vanilla Coconut Coffee Creamer (Paleo)

One big question I’ve heard from several people gone Paleo is, “What should I put in my coffee?”. With all of the “amazing” flavored lattes and sinful frappuccino creations out there in the world, it’s hard to find Paleo-friendly options. Of course you can always opt for straight black coffee, but I guess I’m not grown up enough for that yet! 😉 Starbucks doesn’t offer almond or coconut milk as…

What I Bought: Trader Joe’s II

I went to Trader Joe’s! I stocked up on some essentials & picked up a few new things to try, too. Here’s what I got! Pantry Items Tomato Basil Marinara Sauce~ I use it primarily for my favorite meat sauce, or on top of meatballs & spinach for a quick dinner. Old Fashioned Organic Oats~ Not Paleo, but oats are gluten-free, and a good breakfast (or dessert) option mixed with coconut milk…
